The numbers of COVID-19 cases in all 24 wards in the city have been decreasing, but five of them still have more than 1,000 active cases each. These wards that include Andheri East, Borivli, Kandivli, Malad and Dadar-Dharavi, have over one-third of the cumulative cases in the city. The silver lining is that all these wards have a lower number of active cases than a month ago and even the total number of active patients in the city is lower by 20 per cent.

Borivli has 1,282 cases, Kandivli: 1,483, Malad: 1,095, Andheri E-Vileparle E: 1,216 and Dadar-Dharavi: 1,377. These five wards combined have 6,453 patients which are more than one-third of the total active patients (18,595) in the city.
